Student Mental Health

We are conducting a series of projects on the topic of student mental health. Here are two examples:

1. Achieving better mental health for university rehabilitation students: A scoping review and mixed-methods study.

Project Summary
This Master’s thesis project aims to 1) synthesize knowledge about mental health interventions available to undergraduate students in a health field, and 2) explore the views of undergraduate occupational therapy and physical therapy students on the appropriateness of mental health interventions in relation to their needs, in addition to factors influencing their mental health.

2. Mental health concerns and needs of first-year international students in higher education

This Master’s thesis project consists of two components: a scoping review and photo-elicited interviews. The scoping review aims to map research on first-year international students' mental health experiences as well as factors influencing their well-being. The photo-elicited interview component aims to explore the perspectives first-year international students in rehabilitation hold regarding factors that affect their mental health, as well as their perceptions of university resources.

Funders
These projects are partially supported through operational funds from the Canada Research Chairs Program awarded to Shalini Lal, PhD. There is no specific grant funding for these projects.
